Best Psychic-type attackers in-game (2026)
The best Psychic attackers are Shadow Mewtwo, Mewtwo, Mega Mewtwo Y, Hoopa-Unbound, and Necrozma-Dawn-Wings. Psychic counters Fighting and Poison raid bosses.
Psychic is the niche answer to Fighting (Conkeldurr, Machamp, Annihilape) and Poison (Roserade, Toxapex) raid bosses. Not many bosses are Fighting/Poison — but those that exist take massive damage from Psychic.
Mewtwo dominates this list. With Psystrike (Community Day move), it's a top-3 attacker in the game overall.
